JFK Live Tonight: The Role of New Orleans in the JFK Story

Podcaster Christopher Tidmore will talk about Clay Shaw, Jim Garrison, David Ferrie, and other characters he knew

Join co-host Larry Schnapf and I for a live discussion at 8 pm ET tonight with Christopher Tidmore, journalist and political podcaster, about the role of New Orleans in the JFK assassination. I met Tidmore when he gave me a JFK tour of New Orleans which revealed aspects of the JFK story I had not fully appreciated. From a fifth generation local family, Tidmore grew up in a world where JFK characters such as Clay Shaw, David Ferrie, Ed Butler, and Alton Ochsner were familiar faces, if not family friends. He has a unique take on how the culture of New Orleans (combining international trade, old society, and organized crime) played a role in the JFK story.

Join the call tonight at 8 pm ET. After Tidmore tells his stories, we will field your comments and answer your questions.

The podcast is really just a big Zoom call, open to all. Comments and questions are welcome.

Go here to join the call.

You can also listen to JFK Live at your convenience. The podcast will also be published on the site (and podcasting platforms) next week.
